Report your open toilets - ANC Gauteng

Nkenke Kekana says party will speedily address any problems

ANC Gauteng Calls on Communities to Report Open Toilets

The ANC believes that access to decent sanitation is a basic human right and that no citizen must be denied this right. The bucket system was used by successive Apartheid Governments to dehumanise our people. The ANC has in the last seventeen years made strides in eradicating this system in many communities across the province. Where we could not build permanent structures especially in informal settlements alternative sanitation systems were provided.

The ANC calls on all communities who are experiencing problems related to the provision of decent sanitation to urgently call their local councils and ANC representatives to resolve the issue as a matter of urgency. We commit to speedily attend to all such problems that are brought tour attention.

The provision of sanitation is about human dignity and therefore as the ANC we will take drastic action against any council under our control. Unlike the DA, the ANC will never justify nor defend the non provision of decent sanitation to our people.
